Wanda E. Brunstetter's INDIANA COUSIN'S SERIES is by far the best Amish series I have ever discovered. A COUSIN’S PRAYER is the second in the series, but can be read as a standalone novel if you failed to read the first one. Her characters are assured to warm your heart and stay with you long after you finish the book. Her descriptive language proves she is a masterful artist who is able to paint the book in your head as it wraps its way around you heart. Wanda E. Brunstetter’s writes the type of stories that you are assured to fall in love with. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a romance that offers tons of emotional substance by providing an outstanding reading pleasure.
